What is PMI and why don't I need it with a VA Loan?
PMI, or Private Mortgage Insurance, is a type of insurance that lenders typically require to protect themselves if a homeowner defaults on their mortgage. But with a VA Loan, you don't need PMI. It's our way of making homeownership more affordable for our heroes.
What is the VA funding fee?
The VA funding fee is like a one-time charge you might have to pay if you get a VA home loan. You can add this fee to your loan, so you don't have to pay it all at once. And if you have a disability related to your service or got the Purple Heart, you might not have to pay this fee at all!
